Hi Jacqueline, There are a number of things you can try to get homework turned in on time, they range from food to professional points. In some classes I reward the class with pizza if for a period of time everyone turns in homework on time. Sounds childish but it really works because we take some time in class to eat pizza and visit with each other. It is a change of pace for the students. This method also has students helping each other because they don't want to lose out on the pizza. They hold each other accountable. I have professional points students can earn that contribute to their final grade. Homework completion is a part of those points. The students want to get the professional points so they get their homework in. If neither of these suggestions work for you let me know and we can explore some additional strategies. Gary
